Who were the Gods of Samoa: Origins of Polynesian heritage and culture?

ANSWER: In both Eastern and Western Samoa research has been attempted at finding traditional Polynesian rituals and spiritual beliefs relating to Gods and an afterlife. The studies show that in Samoa (sacred islands) the Gods are the Samoans themselves and their spirituality and belief system was linked to its original entitlement system and an ancestral adoration. 

"This isn't saying that Samoans consider themselves as living deities and move around the world with ridiculous images of themselves in mind, no. It's just that Samoa is very very old, and has a very extensive reach in the Pacific Ocean and being the origin of many, founders tend to be seen as ancient ones or ancestors. In Samoa, there are actual titles which have been over King and even over High-King and become Celestial in status or Holy with some of the names in Polynesian mythology having actual Samoan title backgrounds like Tagaloa or Taga-lagi or Tangaloa"

Anthropologist "The Samoans have always been an incredible interest to the scholar community being that they're credited to founding the Polynesian Triangle from Central Polynesia to Eastern Polynesia, then onto Northern and Southern regions. There's also an interest in genetic studies because the Polynesian gene pool is found throughout Southeast Asia which is genetically connected to East Asia and Central Asia. There is even a well known Polynesian Genetic Motif B4a1a1 by which geneticists have become fascinated by over the years using it as the Austronesian Marker of Oceania"

◘ Health Interests

#1 tip Trust in Medical help has lowered since year 2000, especially when it comes to Cancer Treatments. Promises unkept for cures and breakthroughs in new research never applied, or with poor results, for over 40 years has raised skepticism. Following the most advanced tech nations instead of relying on easy access convenient hospitalization has been recommended for those looking for better medical help.

#1 tipA Community report says to "Beware of TAP WATER" [Tap Water can be Dangerous]. Outside the island, there are industrialized cities with real toxic issues. On the surface the City may have great rides, food, highways, and parks, but have under it all "toxic or environmental health issues" due to old Landfills and Water Infrastructure being ignored. If an area has a waste smell, the ground nearby could be a covered over Landfill where a town has expanded, buried the old one, and moved to a new location. Buying clean bottled water is an important choice, and will save a person's health.
◘ Community Interests

#1 tipPacific Islander American Community report on "Banking Overdraft Schemes" which resequence transactions on lower income accounts to make the accounts overdraft. In the Banking Scheme, transactions are being posted in an order that benefits the banking fees, and costing the customer possibly hundreds of dollars. The Banking Overdraft Schemes have been reported to still be attempted. Keep your money in a trusted Bank. Do not just sign up to any bank.

#1 tip Check out your local Library for community events. Also a Library can subscribe to Polynesian Newspapers and Magazines so that you and your kids can read them. Organizing a way to have books and media content (movies and news) able for your community to check out is important. Organize your local Library on how to get things started. Classes in public school are also being asked by local community for more Pacific languages and culture to be taught.
